Annie Soudain
Friday, 31 July 2026 to Wednesday, 02 September 2026
Annie Soudain creates distinctive linocuts inspired by the landscapes, wildlife and changing light of East Sussex. Working predominantly with the demanding reduction linocut technique, each print is built from a single block, carefully cut away and printed in successive layers of colour. The process is both technically exacting and beautifully unforgiving, making every edition unique and impossible to reproduce once the block is complete.
Born in Kent and educated at Canterbury and Brighton, Annie has spent much of her life living and working on the Sussex coast. The marshes, cliffs, beaches and hedgerows of Fairlight, Pett Level, Rye Harbour and Romney Marsh provide an enduring source of inspiration, reflected in images that celebrate both the drama and the quiet intricacies of the natural world.
An acclaimed printmaker and former art teacher, Annie has exhibited widely as a member of the Sussex Guild, the Rye Society of Artists and the Society of Botanical Artists, and her work is held in private collections across the UK, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and the United States.
This exhibition at The Crown, Hastings brings together a selection of Annie's vibrant linocuts, each revealing her remarkable eye for colour, pattern and place. Rich in atmosphere and crafted with exceptional skill, these works invite us to look more closely at the landscapes and wildlife that surround us, and to discover the extraordinary beauty within the familiar.
